Progressed Sun in Ascendant Sign When your progressed Sun enters your natal Ascendant (1st house cusp) sign, you can feel an integration of your personality occur. Your Ascendant is who you come across as, your outer self, and your Sun is who you really are, your inner self. For most of us, our Ascendant and Sun are in different signs, so if your progressed Sun enters your Ascendant sign (the progressed Sun moves through about three signs in your life so it might not enter your Ascendant sign if it's 4-8 signs away), who you are on the outside and who you are on the inside begin to match. You become more comfortable with your outer self, and feel the outer you is more a part of your true personality. You don't feel like you're wearing much of a mask anymore. Progressed Sun in Immum Coeli SignWhen your progressed Sun enters your natal Immum Coeli (4th house cusp) sign, your wants and needs can become more integrated. Your Sun is your ego needs and desires, while the IC rules your emotional needs and foundation. If your progressed Sun enters the sign of your IC (the progressed Sun moves through about three signs in your life so it might not enter your IC sign if it's 4-8 signs away), what your ego and emotional needs are begin to sync up. You can feel less of a war between what you want and what you need, the two becoming very similar. Progressed Sun in Descendant Sign When your progressed Sun enters your natal Descendant (7th house cusp) sign, you can see an integration of your relationship with others and your relationship with yourself.

You can feel the same alone as you do with others, not feeling a pull between needing to be alone and needing to be with others. You strike that balance, allowing you to be truly interconnected. ﻿﻿Progressed Sun in Midheaven SignWhen your progressed Sun enters your natal Midheaven (10th house cusp) sign, who you are and who you want to be can be integrated, and you begin to feel that who you want to be isn't too far from who you are, and who you are is a good version of yourself. The Sun rules who you are, and the Midheaven shows who you aspire to be. If your progressed Sun enters the Midheaven sign (the progressed Sun moves through about three signs in your life so it might not enter your Midheaven sign if it's 4-8 signs away), these two sync up. The person that you've been striving to become starts to look like who you already are, and you feel that you've reached a higher level of being.
